7/1

C&D winner here in August. 12/1, below form seventh of 13 in handicap at this course (12.1f) 17 days ago. Significantly drop back in trip a likely plus but he does need to step up again.

11/1

Bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Redcar (6f, heavy) 31 days ago. Steps up significantly in trip now and interesting what the market makes of her re-united with Silvestre De Sousa.

16/1

3-time C&D winner. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (1m) in February, left poorly placed and not knocked about. Record here means she's worth a second look on return to action.

Forecasts

Badger Berry (5/4), Palazzo (7/1), Kentucky Kingdom (7/1), Nine Elms (7/1), Atalanta Queen (8/1), Pattaya (11/1), Crazy Spin (16/1), Katsonis (20/1), Taramanda (22/1), Muqarred (33/1), Nicky Baby (80/1), Mabaady (125/1), Tellovoi (125/1), Mama Africa (125/1)

BADGER BERRY produced a career-best effort when landing a C&D event 4 weeks ago and he's fancied to defy a 7 lb rise in the weights again partnered by Hollie Doyle. Palazzo returned to form when second at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and is respected, ahead of Atalanta Queen and Crazy Spin.
